Lawrence WenthenPeriod 3 Online CommunicationsTechnology Essay I use the computers at school sometimes, when I have to finish an essay that I put up on a website in school, or if I had to print out a news article for Rollins’ class last semester, but that’s all I used the school computers for. I constantly use my computer at home. I got it for my birthday a couple of months after my it came up in February, and I use it constantly to do everything for school, and I also use it to play video games like Halo and different kinds of flight simulators, because I have a flight joystick. I don’t really use my cell phone at all. I’ve sent 3 texts total. I use about 25 minutes a month because my parents force me to call them when I get home, and I usually use the landline for that. I use the landline for every other call I make because it’s free. As far as TV, I have U-verse, and I record movies a lot. I’ve only rented movies from U-verse a couple of times when I hadn’t seen the movie in a while and my parents didn’t fell like going to Blockbuster. I have an Xbox 360, and I use it all the time playing Call of Duty: World at War, and Tom Clancy’s EndWar. I used to have a Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance, but not anymore. I have an iPod Nano, the new one that’s really small but plays videos. I have a bunch of movies on it, and a bunch of games as well. I very rarely use a radio, even though I have a good stereo system. I don’t use DVD’s that often, even though I will watch a bunch of episodes of Family Guy on my portable DVD player. I have a digital camera that I always use on vacations, and then I will make a slideshow movie with the pictures. I also have a video camera, but it’s old because it uses tapes instead of mini DVD’s. In school, I have taken Robotics, Photography, and Music Tech. I intend on taking the next robotics course next year. I am also in the Robotics Club because I want to go into the robotics engineering field as a career.
